Submit only the first 13 digits of the Entry Code for the newest Scratchers games!

The newest games have four digit game numbers which required more digits in the Entry Code field on your tickets. BUT, you only need to submit the FIRST 13 digits from the Entry Code field. And the Ticket ID has increased by one digit to 7 digits. See below.
